Answer:

The lines are perpendicular to each other because $-8$ and $\frac{1}{8}$ are opposite reciprocals of each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first line has equation $y=-8x-\frac{5}{4}$ .

The slope of this equation is $-8$ .

The second equation is $y=\frac{1}{8}x+\frac{4}{5}$

The slope of this equation is $\frac{1}{8}$

The two slopes are negative reciprocals of each other.

This means that the two lines are perpendicular.

The volume of a right triangular prism is 72 cubic feet. The height of the prism is 9 feet. The triangular base is an isosceles

Maslowich

Answer:

<h2>The area of the triangular base = 8 ft²</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a volume of a prism:

$V=A_BH$

$A_B-area\ of\ a\ base\\H-height$

We have

$V=72\ ft^3,\ H=9\ ft$

Substitute:

$72=9A_B$ <em>divide both sides by 9</em>

$8=A_B\to A_B=8\ ft^2$
